This morning Captain - SpaalrF, of the Lit , ar rived at the 'Admir4ty ),vith Dispatches from Lord COLLIN'GiV6OI) and _Admiral . Puttiris'. The 'Dis, patches from the former state, that the French fleet: were reported to be at sea, but his Lordihip had tot, , received any positive inforroalion Upon the subject. If, , bowever, the French should have ventured to sea, we may safely rely upon the vigilance and skill's of the Noble Lord for a sattsfactory account of them. The accounts from Cadiz confirm the intelligence of the French baying passed thefsiem Morena, and that they were advancing in Andalusia; but the greatest reliance was placed upon the exertions of General CASTANOS, and The gallant army under his command. The Spanish . Fleet at Cadiz have moved down, and are now anchored outside of our Squa dron,. We, this day received 4finerican4 3 apers to the 12th ult. The . debates in the Congress, particularly in the House of Representatives, upon the,subjed of Mr. - JACKSON'S condud, have been most 'violent: The Resolutions against Mr. JACKSON were carried , after a sitting of nineteen hours, by a majority of 72 to 41. The President of the United .Statrs has' recommended a considerable increase in thciir Lary tbrce, and also the equipping of some ships of. war. , We this morning received Spanish and Portu guese Papers, the former to the 2d; and the latter to the 4th inst. We have nor room to give their contents at length, but ve are sorry to find,that .the French have passed the Sierra Morena, and have advanced as far as Cordova, of which - city they ob igined possession. It is added, however, that they, afterwards retreated precipitately ; and hopes+ are expressed that. the French corps which has thus advanced, will share the fate of DUPONT'S ,army. Some apprehension, however, seems to be enter tained for the safety, of Seville. These Papers speak of the general enthusiasm of the Spanish Peo ple; and of their hatred against the French, in as strong terms as- ever. A consideraige number of Papers respe&ing the Negpciation between Great Britain and America, were yesterday laid before Parliament. Many of. these . Papers have already been published in the English and American Papers. We have, however, selected some of the important parts _of the Corre spondence between Mr. , CA NNI NG and Mr. gRSKIN EP which prove most incontrovertibly the accuracy of the former* Geritleman's assertion respedting the , arrangement concluded with Ami:ric, .
